Angels

I really believe in angels.  

I believe that God is a god of love and that God wishes for us to be full of love, joy, peace, and happiness.  I believe that God sends his angels to help us constantly whenever we need them whether we believe in them or not. We are all put here to love each other, to help each other, and to do good for each other. Sometimes, though, we need some help. Sometimes are own efforts fall short of what we need.  That is when angels appear.  Most of the time we don't even see them or realize their presense, but I know that they are there helping us, protecting us, and loving us.

There are other angels in this world too.  These are angels that we can see everyday.  They are what I call angels in disguise. They are the people around us whose love, joy, goodness, and light brighten our lives. They are the people whose very presense makes our lives better, more enjoyable, and happier than we could ever hope.  They are the people who live in the Kingdom of God even while they are here on earth.  


Yes, I do believe in angels.  I believe angels are all around us.  I believe some of them fly down from heaven and some of them are people you know.
